Chapter 169 Secret key
For Tangning, this matter was not complicated. Huang Xunjie didn't know why, but the secret key was relatively simple. It was the Skynet ID plus the master secret key authorization.

Now that the master key is available, and the Skynet ID is still missing, it is necessary to find the holographic helmet that Huang Xunjie used to log into Skynet.

Where will this helmet be?It must be the safest place Huang Xunjie thinks.

"Has the leopard returned to its den?"

"I'm back, in the upper reaches of the Qingyi River, in a cave in Jiajiang Thousand Buddha Cliff."

"Then go and see tonight."

"Ok."

Xiaozhi and Tangning didn't seem to take the difficulty of going to Jiajiang to heart, and Tangning was actually not as calm as she appeared on the surface when it was about her mother's secret.

The vehicle passed the Lingyun Junction and entered the Jiazhou Ring Expressway. Tangning clicked on the communication and sent a request to the Sanjiang Junction: "I have arrived in Jiazhou and the journey is normal. Now I request to go to the Mianzhu Junction."

The Jiazhou Ring Expressway is like a rectangle. The Sanjiang hub is located in the southeast corner, while the Mianzhu hub is just north of Jiazhou, close to the Qingyi River and far away from the Minjiang River.

It was farther north and obviously safer.

It didn't take long for Tangning to receive a response from Sanjiang Junction: "The Joint Council and the Academy of Sciences have authorized and agreed to enter Mianzhu Junction. The first step is to check whether there are facilities under the highway bridge to block fish migration. Brother Tang, be careful."

"received, thank you."

The armed unit got off the main road of the expressway, turned onto the expressway around the city, and began to drive north.

Even if it was five kilometers away from the main channel of the Minjiang River, Tangning could still see the obvious traces left by the beast tide.

There are also sporadic herds going upstream along the Minjiang River valley.

"Sanjiang, I see the herd of beasts is still heading north."

"The joint council has discovered a herd of beasts gathering at the Dahui Bay of the Minjiang River in Yuelai Town. The fish shoals that Meizhou used super light mines to kill are now concentrated there. This is also the reason why the herds of beasts continue to move north."

"It's not far from the Mianzhu hub, so be careful."

"receive."

The armored convoy drove onto the Minjiang Bridge on the expressway, and the beasts under the bridge were passing through the bridge hole under the river.

The convoy drove slowly and carefully, not disturbing them: "Sanjiang, the Minjiang Bridge is intact and can be used for traffic, and the beasts are passing under the bridge. Now go to the Qingyi River Bridge."

"Received. After arriving at the Qingyi River Bridge, check the damage of the bridge. If possible, set up a drone airport to inspect the Qingyi River under the bridge."

"There may be remnants of the Huang family's army defending there, so be careful."

"receive."

There are only six or seven kilometers between the two bridges, and soon, the convoy arrived at the Qingyi River Bridge.

"Sanjiang, I have arrived at the Mianzhu hub, and now I will activate the Pluto warrior."

"receive."

At this moment, gunshots erupted suddenly on both sides of the bridge, and the bullets hit the armor plate, making a tinkling sound.

"Xiaozhi!"

Two armored off-road vehicles drove out of the line, and then the firepower of heavy machine guns began to fire at each other.

The Pluto warrior jumped up from the suspension car, unsheathed his long knife, and rushed towards the bridge.

Several militants emerged from their hiding places in a panic. Seeing the power of the Iron Giant, they ran back in fright, and then boarded an old pickup truck covered with camouflage nets, preparing to flee.

However, the ballistic of the heavy machine gun had already swept under the pickup truck that had just started, and then a violent explosion occurred on the truck, blowing the car body apart.

Those people in the car must not survive.

"I just found a wireless signal from the car, and there may be a wireless detonator under the bridge." Xiaozhi's voice was calm: "The emergency treatment is complete."

Tangning just wanted Xiaozhi to catch a couple of jobs, but luckily she didn't say anything.

The Pluto warriors came to the two destroyed pickup trucks, and the people inside had been torn to pieces by the bullets from the heavy machine guns and the explosion of the vehicles.

Tangning let out a sigh of relief, "Sanjiang, just encountered an armed attack, the ambushers have been dealt with, now deploy defenses and check under the bridge."

"It is recommended that the armed units leave the bridge and return to a safe position at the bridgehead. Heavy machine guns will control the river and the bridge, and immediately launch the silver disc drone to scout the surrounding area. After searching the river bridge to confirm safety, release the peregrine drone to scout a wider area. .”

"Brother Tang, I just received a notification from the joint council that the intercity Skynet relay is expected to be deployed at noon tomorrow. The military is currently researching and integrating the available Jiazhou Skynet resources. It will take two days for the command center to be established."

"Until then, everything is on your own."

"receive."

The Pluto fighters started to move, went under the bridge to scan around, and the armed units began to retreat and exit the range of the bridge deck.

It was very quiet under the Qingyi River Bridge, and there was no trace of the animal hordes on both sides of the Minjiang River a few kilometers away.

Among the currents, there is no sight of tens of thousands of scales competing for the upper stream, only a river of abundant clear water rushing downstream.

It wasn't raining, and the concrete arches under the bridge were still dripping with water.

Soon, traces of the placement of several explosives were scanned.

"Find the explosion facility at the bottom of the bridge. The Pluto fighters can't go there. They are going to go out of the cabin and manually release it. The drainage system is discharging unknown liquid into the river, which is probably related to the fish not entering the Qingyi River."

"After eliminating the danger of explosion, collect those liquids, find the source and cut them off."

"receive."

Tangning came out of the eco cabin, reached the side of the viaduct at an extremely fast speed, turned over and slipped down.

Soon, Tangning found eight explosives at the bottom of the bridge, defused them and brought them back to the bridge.

At this time, the silver saucer drone had already flown, and began to use the equipment to detect both sides of the bridge.

Xiaozhi's voice also rang out: "Father, father! According to the map of Jiazhou's urban pipe network, the source of the unknown liquid discharge is most likely to be the Ganjiang Waterworks two kilometers upstream."

The Qingyi River is a tributary of the Dadu River, and its entrance is very close to the mouth of the Minjiang River. As long as this liquid is used to flow down the river, the two rivers can be controlled at the same time.

This blocked the passage of fish schools to reproduce in the Dawan swamp area of ​​Dadu River in the past, and also prevented the animal tide from going to that area to forage, and further to Mount Emei and the western plateau.

"How many Jiazhou Skynet resources are allocated to us by the council?"

"Not many, [-] computing units. Most of Jiazhou Tianwang's resources are still in the hands of the Huang family, and some of them have entered the protection period."

Four thousand units are only enough to set up a virtual game hall. Most of Jiazhou Skynet's resources are in the hands of Huang Xunjie, and some of them belong to his subordinates.

The military is seizing the time to focus on the interrogation and transfer the part of the resources held by the prisoners of war to the name of the Joint Council.

As for the group who died in the battle, their Skynet resources are no longer controlled by anyone, and will enter the Skynet protection period, and no one can use them.

Huang's army does not have drones, and their high-altitude reconnaissance means are at most satellites, which are the part shared by the public.

Back in the armed unit that had already retreated into the woods at the bridgehead, Tangning controlled the Pluto warriors to also retreat into the forest. He half-kneeled on an armored vehicle and let Xiaozhi control it to head towards the Ganjiang Water Plant.

On the waterworks building, a group of militants is driving several workers to pour chemicals into the tank. The leader is at the sniper position on the top of the building, observing the Qingyi River Bridge in the distance with binoculars.

After the brief gunshots and explosions at the bridge ended, the leader hammered the armored panel beside him: "What the hell! Hu Lao Er refused to listen to the order and told him to blow up the bridge first!"

The assistant next to him said: "If the bridge is blown up, the potion will not be able to cover the entire river. When the beast tide comes...the head, why don't you withdraw? I heard that the big boss is gone, and the young master was also arrested in Jingyan."

"Fart! Skynet resources are still under the name of the big boss!"

"But...but in this battle, the big boss never issued an order from the beginning to the end..."

"That's not dead! If you don't listen to the leader's previous explanation, when he comes back, you go to fight the thunder?"

Thinking of the cruel methods used by the chief to deal with his disobedient subordinates, the deputy couldn't help but shudder: "Then what should we do now? There are Pluto warriors on the other side of the bridge. Eh? Head, they retreated!"

"That thing is expensive!" The leader reconfirmed that the Pluto warriors had retreated across the bridge: "It's because we are worried that we will blow up the bridge and fall into the river."

"Then what should we do now? Should we send a blasting team over there?"

At this moment, several heavy machine guns rang out in the woods in the distance, bullets whizzed over, and several rounds hit the building.

The deputy and the leader were taken aback, and quickly lay down on the roof of the building.

However, the heavy machine gun firepower was quickly shifted elsewhere.

"This is reconnaissance shooting." The leader said, "They didn't find us."

Carefully poked his head out, and continued to look out through the window of the armor plate: "What is the big guy over there doing?"

"Can't see clearly, the woods are blocking it!"

In the woods in the distance, the Pluto warrior seemed to be moving back and forth, and even knocked down a few big trees, looking quite busy.

The leader gritted his teeth: "This is building a position. It seems that the front is not good."

"Then let's retreat to the city?"

"The urban area is not good, people are closed and beaten. Now we can only go north, go to Jiajiang Mao for a while, and see the situation..."

"Why didn't you surrender?" A voice rang in the ears of the two who were watching the other side intently.

The two couldn't help being shocked, and suddenly drew their guns and shot back, but when they pulled the trigger, a blue light flashed in front of their eyes, and their weapons had been cut into several pieces silently.

And there was no one behind him.

Behind the two, the voice sounded again: "Don't resist, hand over the Skynet resources, and I'll let you go."

"You are... a spirit... a psychic..." The little leader started to chatter his teeth and stammered.

"Ask your subordinates to hand over all Skynet resources, put down their weapons, close the valve, and then..." The voice sounded behind the two of them: "Go wherever you like. I just pretended not to hear your conversation, what? ?”

"The holy envoy... is here for the Pluto warrior on the opposite side? Maybe we can help..."

"Are you teaching me how to do things?" A blade protruded from the side of the necks of the two, and the transparent bone blade had blue light flowing: "Or, do you doubt my identity?"

"Don't dare! Don't dare..." The little leader began to frantically draw his hands in the air, manipulating the holographic light curtain of his helmet: "We'll hand it over now!"
